Her Collection (Schoon Wine Farm and Cellar)
Winery Description
Location and History
HER Wine Collection was founded by women with years of experience in the wine industry who recognised an opportunity to create something different: an all-female, all-Black wine business that brings together their skills, passion and experience. Today, HER is built entirely by women across the wine value chain, from viticulture and winemaking to finance, logistics, marketing and sales.
At the heart of the collection are General Manager and Winemaker Praisy Dlamini and Viticulturist Ruth Faro, who carefully nurture each vineyard block to express its unique character. From the soil to the cellar, their focus is on quality, authenticity and creating wines that are balanced, approachable and beautifully drinkable. The wines celebrate the diversity of Western Cape terroir and the passion of the women who craft them.
HER is about more than wine; it is about creating opportunities and supporting future generations. The company contributes 2% of its profits to a scholarship fund for young, talented individuals from farming communities. Successful candidates receive financial assistance towards their studies, as well as mentorship to help them confidently navigate the working world.




Wine Tasting
HER Wine Collection offers a range of approachable wines designed to suit everything from relaxed gatherings to special celebrations. The Rosé is vibrant and refreshing, with a delicate pink hue and lively character, making it an ideal choice for warm afternoons, salads, seafood and light pastas.
The Sauvignon Blanc is fruity and zesty, with bright citrus and green apple aromas, a crisp finish and refreshing acidity. The Chenin Blanc combines tropical and stone-fruit aromas with creamy apple and lingering melon notes, balanced by lively acidity.
For red wine lovers, the Pinotage showcases South Africa’s signature red grape with rich red-fruit flavours, subtle spice and a medium-bodied structure. The Shiraz is bold yet approachable, offering ripe berry flavours and warming spice, making it well suited to grilled meats, hearty stews and other robust dishes.
Together, the collection reflects HER’s philosophy of creating wines with character, balance and personality – wines made by women, for everyone to enjoy.
Wine Tasting is by appointment Monday to Friday.
